Yeah, isn't facial recognition metadata about relationships between facial features? Nothing about that statement makes me more at ease.

Yep, it sounds like it was written to be falsely reassuring and it doesn't hold up to scrutiny. Facial recognition works on data, not just images, such as the ratios between features, jawline, cheek structure, etc... Most people won't spot this.
